美国空军近日取消了 135 名军人的晋升资格 [1]。该决定源于一次安全部队专业知识测试(SKT)中使用的评分标准已过时,导致这些人员被错误地授予了晋升资格 [1]。空军高层承认这是一起人为失误,并承诺将重新评估所有考生的成绩以填补由此产生的空缺名额 [1]。受影响的军人已被告知其状态变更情况,并可拨打热线进行咨询 [1]。此次事件发生在国防部长皮特·赫格塞斯频繁干预军官晋升名单的背景下 [1]。值得注意的是,尽管发生了上述变动,技术军士长的晋升总名额仍保持在 586 个不变 [1]。此外,在近期的人事调整中,国防部长还移除了海军候选人名单上的 9 名人员 [1]。
The U.S. Air Force has rescinded promotions for 135 service members after discovering that an outdated scoring key was used to incorrectly award eligibility during the Senior NCO Knowledge Test (SKT) [1]. The error stemmed from obsolete grading standards applied to security personnel assessments, leading officials to admit it was a human mistake and initiate a review of all candidate scores to fill the resulting vacancies [1]. While this specific batch of promotions is being voided, the total number of available slots for technical sergeants remains unchanged at 586 [1]. Affected individuals have been notified of their status change and can contact a dedicated hotline for inquiries regarding the situation [1]. This incident occurred against the backdrop of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's recent interventions in officer promotion lists, including his removal of nine candidates from the Navy roster [1].
